Hi!! I missed this so much; I don’t think this will be weekly again, but I have time this week (and COVID, so I’m not going anywhere) and this just seemed like fun to me this week.

Weekend Reading//

It may be my algorithms but it really does feel like this is the year that everyone is on their financial shit.

Pets can be equal to human family.

Bookshelf Wealth.

Tips to clean out your closet from a professional.

Boomers punch down at us, Gen Z punches down; when will millennials get left alone?

Borrowing money only decreases happiness.

As the author of this puts, us sorority girls who were in college in the 2010s know bows, but I’m loving them for home decor.

Loud budgeting.

The 12-Week Year Method for achieving your goals.

One easy way to reduce your climate impact is switching to a post-consumer product made toilet paper (and using less to clean up).

This kitchsy kitchen trend is so me, and I know that because my recipe box is literally one of the linked items and I’ve had it for years.

I find the larger discussion so interesting, this article is about how opinions of the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda have changed over time, with the different waves of feminism and the MeToo movement, but it comes back to; can we separate the art from the artist. And if we can, should we?

Even at our most successful, we never seem to leave behind all our doubt.

Caught My Eye//

Wide-leg jeans that aren’t baggy jeans are my ideal jean.

The Hill House Home Spring Drop was this Tuesday: Polka Dot Cosima, Polka Dot Jacqueline (this might be my 2024 wedding guest dress), White Eyelet Ellie are my initial favourites. But I’m not shopping at the moment, so I haven’t purchased anything.

I would love to redecorate my bedroom (it’s been the same since 2017) and I love this bow bedding.

Weekly R.E.P.O.R.T.//

Reading: The Witches of New York by Ami McKay. I checked this out from the library because I finally got a library card!

Eating: Spicy Sausage and Potato soup. I didn’t pay attention to the spicy in the title and was pleasantly surprised.

Playing: Don’t Forget Me – Maggie Rogers

Obsessing: Soup, I’m just in a big soup mood. It makes sense because it’s cold and I’m sick.

Recommending: Oh You Budget’s templates.

Treat: Sleeping as much as possible. I wish I could become a cat and just nap the way they do.

Have a great weekend!
